I have some fairly decent birch or oak plywood (i forget which), that was originally intended for a desk that never got finished (although it's been cut and put together as a desk once).

I'm looking for someone who could-

Come to my apartment on the NE side of Raleigh
Bring their own tools
and cut some of this wood to make shelves for me to put on a wall (the rectangular kind you have triangle pieces in a wall to support- which i'll buy at the hardware store or if you can cut those as well, bonus).

Basically you need to be able to cut straight lines.

If you have a router and could round off the edges on 3 sides- even better. (Otherwise I'll find one as I've worked with a table mounted one before).

All other finishing work such as drilling any holes, sanding, staining, painting, or mounting I will do myself.

I'm not entirely sure how many shelves could be made out of the wood, but it shouldn't be too many (10-15 at most).

Reply or PM with what you can do and how much you want for it.

if all you want is some wood cut, you can bring it to me and i'll cut it on my table saw to your measurements. I live in durham though. if you have a drill and the ability to hang the shelves, then all you really need is someone with a table saw and it would be much easier to take the wood to the saw than to bring the saw to the wood.

Hrm, i'll have to see if the wood will fit into my Civic. O.o
Mebbe.

buy a hand saw from lowes.
use a tape measure(also avail. at lowes) and figure out how long you want the shelves.
measure, and mark the wood(pencil will do) in a straight line(ruler).
cut wood with handsaw.
mount shelves.
return saw to lowes.
^unless the shelf material is wider than needed, i.e. you have 4x8 sheets...if so, call the dude in Durahm.

I think it's $0.50 a cut at lowes.

i mean i guess someone could come out there with a circular saw and get it done, but it'd take 1/10 the time using a table saw.
